RAILROAD LAND GRANTS.
Answers by the Railroad Companies to
Secretary Lamar's Rule.

WASHINGTON, June 2S.--Tbe secretary OF
the interior has received answers from all land
grant railroads named in his rule, dated may
%, 1857, requiring them to show cause why
several orders of Withdrawal from the settle
ment Of lands within their indemnity limits
should not be revoked, and lands embraced
therein restored to settlement. The st. Paul
and Sioux City railroad company, in its
answer, takes the position that it is beyond
the power and jurisdiction OF the secretary OF
the interior, as the law stands, to restore TO
settlement any lands within the indemnity
limits OF that country; certainly pot until the
grant shall first have been fully adjusted. 1t
| holds that so far az the indemnity lands are
| corcprned, acts of 1857, 1864 and 1865 being
| IN pari materia, the last two amendatory OF
| earlier grants, and all operating upon pre-
cisely the same subject matter, stand and
must be construed together as one enactment,
and into that enactment in its entirety
is incorporated the provision which con-
gress saw fit 20 enact in the seventh section Oi
the act OF March 3, 1865, viz: Direction 10
the secretary Of the interior to withdraw from
| the market land embraced by provisions OF
the act and hence ii follows that the With
! draws. Of all indemnity lands lying within
twenty miles OF the line OF road was legisla.
tive withdrawal; that when the secretary a
the interior issued the necessary executive OF
administrative order to carry that Withdrawal
into effect, be exhausted all powers Of The
land der artment over the subject matter
that as public lands in the United States they
are only disposable under the direction Of con.
| gress, and it requires legislation by that body
before its enactment, defeating the lands in
question to this party for any purpose, can be
repealed, modified or set aside; and that con.
gress, moi having repealed It's legislation with
| respect TO the grant, any attempt on the part
Of an executive officer, by way OF revocation
Of the act Of his predecessor, is In direct OPP
position to the expr, sscd direction OF con.
press.

CHICAGO, June 29.-The general managers
Of the various roads in the Western and

= from st. Paul and Minneapolis TO Duluth so
as to enable the Lake Michigan routes to
maintain higher rates, as well as the milling
in transit troubles, are also to be discussed.
Rates from western points nave also been
seriously demoralized, and means wiz be con-
sidered 10y which it will be possible to restore

THE BUILDERS.
Convention of National Building Trades
What is Proposed to be Done.

Convention of National Building Trades
--What is Proposed to be Done.
CHICAGO, June 2S.-Greenbaum's hall has
been crowded all the morning with delegates
to the national convention of the Building
Trades which will be formally called to order
this afternoon. New York, Brooklyn, Bos-
ton, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Pittsburg, and
Milwaukee are among the cities already repre-
scented and Il wss stated that delegate repre-
sentatives from some fifteen other places
would arrive en- the afternoon trains. The
principal talk among the delegates was the
platform to he submitted. One of the dele
gates whose views will go a long way toward
moulding the policy OF the gathering
said that a national organization of the
building trades to meet the national organt-
cation OF master builders had become
on absolute necessity. The recent outcome
OF the stove moulders' trouble, he said,
showed the advantages Of a national organi-
cation, particularly where q combination
exists among the bosses. There are a few
national bodies comprising individual build
ing trades such as the carpenters, plumbers
and a part OF the builders, and an effort, he
said, would be made to induce these to anal
gamate with the national organization to be
created this week. The convention will take
into consideration the Chicago strike and
lockout In the building trades, and II Is said
that IL will compel the Chicago bricklayers to
abandon their present union and reorganize
under the International.

STATE OF TRADE.

1t has been a week of liquidation and de-
preston In the exchanges. There has been q
large decrease In trade this week in all lines
of staple produce, AID business has displayed
more of the conditous Of the midsummer
rest and dullness. The situation has also
features. Some lines of produce which are
particularly controlled at Chicago, have been
in an uncertain, unsettled condition through
out, and there has been ne snap or confidence
IN speculative theories on enc side or the
other. The gamblers in produce have also
involved legitimate trade by their mishaps
and panics, and have especially Influenced
the tone OF money. A feeling Of uncertainty
and doubt has been mixing literally with the
confidence which prevailed previously, and
some extent. The effect Of speculation has
not been OF much Importance except as indi
eating which side Of the gambling wager had
the best luck. The Chicago wheat deals car
ried down the Fidelity National bank, invelv-
ing $780, 600. The vice-president is now
under arrest charged with fraud. Bradstreet
reports that business is good in most lines Of
trade.
American cattle in the London markets
were dull and lower in price.
The 30th being the close of the fiscal year
a large number of pension checks will be sent
out, amounting in the aggregate to S12, 000,-
900,

Rains in Answer TO PRAYER.

From the Carroll Sentinel: As a
matter purely of news interest we want
to make mention of the fact that for
some days prior to the advent OF the
recent big rain masses were said in the
German Catholic church in this city,
praying for rain and also in other
churches in the country. We presume
that thousands of prayers from thous-
ands of faithful hearts have been sent
up from thousands of farm households
over northwestern Iowa in the past few
weeks. A brief local item is not going
to inquire whether prayer Is heard or
not. Certain it is that we were near
ing the point when to longer lack rain
meant to many TO face almost financial
ruin, and so anxious hearts everywhere
sought the one refuge which fears
cannot Danish. Well, the rains came
they were Just such rains as one
could pray for--they were generous
beyond m~easure-they have lifted
many a dismal foreboding-they hav,
brought happiness in thousands O
homes. We won't quarrel with The
man who says prayer has nothing tc
do with it. but we will stick to tn
theory that prayer did not do an,
harm.
And, finally, get back to the begin
ning-what is prayer for, anyway? /
it for ornament or for use? Why no
ask for r%ainstorm, AS well as 10 say
''give us this day our daily breadP'
Wasn't prayer intended for good use
healthy, practical useP OF coulse j
was, and if there is answer to it, it i
proof positive TO urge against any o
the fine spun theories that are SO con
mon in use as ridicule against praye
for temporal blessings or relief.
